Domaine Du Chevalier Branco

Description

This Cubas from Domaine du Chevalier demonstrates that a touch of boldness can indeed be a winning strategy. Fermented with a fearless approach – letting gravity do its thing, as you do – and with a maceration seemingly overseen by a very large gentleman, this white wine boldly ignores convention. Built around the traditional Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon blend, it demands patience and a meticulous hand, resulting in a complexity that unfolds gracefully over time. Those 97 points from James Suckling and 95 from Decanter certainly aren’t a fluke; it’s a wine best enjoyed with a perfectly grilled fish or roasted duck to fully appreciate its nuances.
